That handcrank looks the same as the one I had on my New National, and the wear seems consistent with the rest of the machine.

lol may be but even though gas prices have dropped, it would cost me a heck of a lot more to pick that one up in WA if I drove from IA. Lol! I wasn't really wanting it, I just like the angular look to it.

I was looking for thread - saw a lot of adds for tires - all with lots of thread left on them! Found a couple of thread mills too - maybe a treadmill you can use to wind your bobbins?
